Editor’s notes September 2010

Plenty of good walks, some very warm weather; a soup lunch with dessert, two evening walks with cream teas laid on half-way around, so I think it is safe to say that we offer quite a variety and choice of walks to suit all tastes. If you have an idea for something different, please let me know; perhaps you could even organise it. The AGM in November will be at a new venue. Given that at last year’s AGM we decided that we had to be more self supporting financially within the Group, this year we will meet at The Key [it used to be The Running Buck ph many years ago!] on St Margarets Plain/Soane Street, next to the main entrance to Christchurch Mansion House. It has ll the facilities we require, there is a car park right next door and it is centrally placed in Ipswich, so we do hope that you will give us your support. To make the evening tempting, after the short business part of the meeting, we will take a tea break when you will have the opportunity to catch up with old friends for a chat and then you will be entertained by Suffolk's own raconteur, author and funny man Charlie Haylock. If you came to the AGM five years ago you will remember the excellent evening we had. Put the date in diary now. I would like to draw your attention to a web site which offers Mid Anglia Rail walks; similar to the East Suffolk Line walks, which some leaders have used, only on a different line. Both have been compiled by Roger Wolfe, a member of our group, and offer something slightly different in station to station walks. The web site is at www.marpa.org.uk. and well worth a look.

Good walking
